1960 Topps Day 4

Today is day four of the 1960 Topps Project.  Today was another good day in the mail.  I received three cards back today.  Two of them answered my questions as well.  The total of signed 1960 Topps cards is now up to 12.  Alright lets introduce the cards that I got today.

Billy Gardner is the first of the three I received today. He was Baltimore's regular second baseman from 1956 to 1959, and in 1957 he led the AL in doubles and at-bats. He was in Minnesota's original Opening Day lineup, and played briefly later that season for the powerful 1961 Yankees. (Baseball Library)
